DarkMatter collaborates with VMware to extend heightened security to virtualisation and Cloud environments

Clients to benefit from vetted solutions given Cloud security is an area of high activity for DarkMatter

Abu Dhabi, Dubai

DarkMatter, a cyber security firm headquartered in the UAE, today announced it will work with VMware to develop a highly secure virtualisation and cloud solution for enterprise clients.

DarkMatter has already achieved VMware accreditation in the core competencies of Server Virtualisation, Hybrid Cloud and Management Automation. It is also well on its way to obtaining VMware Premier Partner status, and has achieved Cloud Provider competency.

Contributing its cyber security expertise, consultation and knowledge of the UAE and regional markets, DarkMatter will augment these assets with VMware’s comprehensive portfolio of virtualisation solutions that enable businesses to thrive in the Mobile Cloud era. DarkMatter will also receive additional support in VMware’s products and solutions, which the company will in turn be able to pass on to its clients.

Capitalising on its cooperation with VMware, DarkMatter clients will benefit from the provision of tailored solutions incorporating best practices and leading edge technologies in the areas of virtualisation and the Cloud.

Commenting on the cooperation with VMware, Paul Lawson, Vice President of Infrastructure & System Integration at DarkMatter said, “VMware is a clear leader in the area of virtualisation and cloud, which are both significant and high growth areas in the IT space. Securing these environments is of critical importance given the amount of data entrusted to them both in transit and at rest, and DarkMatter can play a crucial role here.”

Paul Lawson continued, “It is DarkMatter’s intention to continue working with leading technology companies globally to give our clients access to the best products and solutions available anywhere. We look forward to our work with VMware continuing to grow and ultimately to our mutual customers enjoying the utmost peace-of-mind when operating in the Cloud environment.”

Reeman Ansari, Regional Channel Manager at VMware, MENA commented, “DarkMatter is an important partner for VMware in delivering the software-defined data centre to customers across EMEA. DarkMatter is a partner with whom we look forward to continuing to strengthen our relationship as more businesses realise the benefits of an agile, software-driven world.”

Already a trusted partner to the UAE Government and other entities, DarkMatter is staffed by tier one international cyber experts who develop, manage and deploy the most innovative technologies. Solutions adhere to the company’s Cyber Security Life-Cycle, which incorporates a four-stage approach involving planning, detection, protection and recovery, and reinforces its secure business solutions.

DarkMatter is leveraging this experience in the wider market as it looks to serve regional and international clients. The company provides a complete portfolio of cyber security solutions and services to organisations that have sophisticated security requirements, from governments and infrastructure operators to large corporations.
